Re: Component and 4dd file

Andreas, Thanks for the kind offer. Miyako sorted out my conceptual gap. What I was not understanding is that you need three files: Component.4DC ExternalData.4DB <--- This is what I was neglecting ExternalData.4DD In my case, ExternalData.4DB is really just Component.4DB. But they're serving

Re: 4D web server protected by a proxy server - pdfs don't come through

Yes. Most answers say something like replace (pseudo code) target="_blank" with target="_document", and make it download instead of display in browser. It has the same problem though. I few messages said there was a bug in Chrome some years ago, but this happens with multiple browsers. Tomorrow

4D web server protected by a proxy server - pdfs don't come through

tl;dr PDFs served by 4D v12 open in a new browser tab as expected from the same machine, and also from other machines on the LAN. When accessed from a machine in the DMZ, not on the LAN, we can navigate the site, but the PDFs don't come over. It seems like the OS firewall or WebRoot antivirus

Re: Thanks and Goodbye

Joshua, If you're still going to be doing 4D, you should follow the 4D Tech NUG List of Happiness (that's what, I'm sure, everyone calls it now) since it's probably the best place to get 4D job postings. Also, unless you're pretty well planted where you currently are, pick a place you'd love

Re: GET PRINT OPTION value2 typing

I just answered my own question. Just use 2 different variables. Duhhh. That being said, the compiler never complained before. Why now. John > On May 31, 2017, at 9:07 AM, John Baughman wrote: > > The compiler in v16 is complaining that the 3rd parameter in GET PRINT

GET PRINT OPTION value2 typing

The compiler in v16 is complaining that the 3rd parameter in GET PRINT OPTION type is unknown.It can either be a longint or text value so how do you type the variable? In my particular case the answer is easy as I am only using it to get the destination option so can type it as text. What do

Re: "This component protected method cannot be edited." - but it's not a component method

David, It’s not a very good error message as in my experience it has nothing to do with components. Check the “Access” of the method. Also, I’ve found the batch edit option only works for the Designer log in. Floyd Zink QMed Corporation From: 4D_Tech

"This component protected method cannot be edited." - but it's not a component method

Weird one. I've got a database and I want to make a batch modification of an attribute. (I want to set everything invisible and then show the handful of methods useful in user and the 4D editors.) But I'm getting the error "This component protected method cannot be edited." But I'm not
